With contemporary aesthetics, the ability to withstand heavy footfall and quick installation, Forbo’s Marmoleum Modular ticked all the boxes for the Life café situated in the International Centre for Life in Newcastle. What’s more, with the science centre receiving hundreds of thousands of visitors per year, many of whom are school children, the Allergy UK Approved floor covering was the perfect fit. And Forbo’s contribution didn’t stop there, with the company’s acoustic solution Sarlon chosen for the entrance area of the building and the unique Flotex flocked flooring - in the ‘Bacteria’ pattern from the Ettore Sottsass range - installed in the DNA science block, in keeping with the theme.
